Press F5. You haven't changed anything, and you only exited the app a few seconds ago. Visual Studio builds again. Oh, and the "check for build before debug" option? It's turned off.

Debugging, running Entity framework's Update-Database command, looking at it slightly sideways. It always goes through the whole build cycle.
What happened to the days of simply tracking project dependencies and file changes, and when youhit F5 it says "nothing I care about has changed. We're done"

I have had all kinds of fun with the Batch Build option. I think it is messed up to the point I filed a bug report and was told the issue is behavior by design. I replied that it was a very poor design.

It must have improved since the last time I used Qt Creator. I had to do complete clean and build's because the dependency checking ignored resource changes.

VS has not a single clue what/when to build or not, if you are not going and explicitly define the project dependencies...

What annoys me is that if you leave the "properties" page open and close VS, next time you open the solution you get an error because VS is using the project file and can't open it twice ...
This is an annoyance when you release a new version, and then go to the assembly properties to set up the version number of the next debug edits ... which may be some weeks or months off.

We have several solutions that contain several projects each. When you tell it to build, it has to check each one for changes to make sure it actually has to build it.
There's a line in the output window that tells me "n succeeded; n failed; n up to date"
The numbers represented there (in my case) always represent the correct compile status. Build is different from rebuild, as I'm sure you know.

Aren't these two the same...? Is VS the only one who's confused here...?

Visual Studio has confused me so much I can't even form logical sentences.

I think this is exactly what's happening. VS manages to confuse itself.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

No one can give me a cogent explanation of how cryptocurrency works.
I'm therefore convinced it's a scam.

The first is limited in supply, the other is more like fiat and costs nothing to produce.

It may not be much, but it's probably more than the cost of producing a Bitcoin. So an Arcade Token does have an intrinsic value - whereas a Bitcoin's value is artificial, resulting completely from how it is managed/marketed.

5teveH wrote: So an Arcade Token does have an intrinsic value Very little, since plastic is cheap. BC has an intrinsic value since it has a use for us (that's the basis of intrinsic value, how much uses do we have and what demand does that generate?)
BC's "intrinsic" value is rising, because supply is limited and demand rising.
5teveH wrote: whereas a Bitcoin's value is artificial, resulting completely from how it is managed/marketed. You may want to pick up a few books explaining basic economics. Also, there's no company that "owns" BC, so there's no budget for marketing.
But go ahead, explain me how the way the ECB manages "money" is superiour to decentralized non-managing based on math.

My perspective: the cost of production is high and produces nothing.

Lots of followers of Keynes here, but they all drop their faith in the man when it comes to BC Even fake money works as money, proven by history - the difference being that BC isn't fiat and doesn't require "belief", nor "trust".
Just to be clear; I don't own BC, don't say anyone should or should not, just reasoning from theory. I'm a silverbug. I don't care whether BC becomes a success or not. Just pointing out that it already is.
